Product Details
Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 500GB Hard Drive
Combining proven components, state-of-the-art
technology and expertise in volume manufacturing,
the Seagate® Barracuda 7200.11 drive—the eleventh
generation of this award-winning desktop hard drive
family—delivers up to 500GB of reliable digital storage.
Seagate has a proven record of delivering reliable products in volume, and the new Barracuda 7200.11 family continues the tradition. Designed with four platters that use the highest areal density available in volume shipping along with second-generation Seagate PMR technology, the Barracuda 7200.11 drive offers the ideal combination of world-class technology and low total cost of ownership.
Capacities up to 500GB mean that users no longer need to forego storing any digital content, including high-definition video, large multimedia projects and data-heavy CAD files. Highly leveraged from award-winning PMR technology, the Barracuda 7200.11 drive increases capacity per disk without increasing platter or head count. At the same time, it enhances reliability by decreasing internal components and increasing magnetic stability at high areal densities.
This Drive Holds
- 212 two-hour DVD-quality movies or
- 750 hours of VHS-quality video or
- 440 days of around-the-clock MP3 audio or
- 186,500 vivid digital photos or
- 1066 action-packed games!

THIS PRODUCT SHIPS IN OEM PACKAGING - GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN
Manufacturers sometimes offer discounts when large quantities of products are purchased without fancy, colorful, retail packaging. We take advantage of these opportunities to bring you the same quality, retail product at a lower price. Retail packaging is designed to look good on a store shelf and attract your attention. It frequently includes more paper, plastic and cardboard than needed. OEM packaging is not as visually attractive but is far more economical and because OEM packaging uses less paper, plastic, ink and cardboard it creates less waste and is better for the environment. Although OEM packaged product ships in a plain white or brown box you can be assured it is the same quality product as the retail packaged version. Buying OEM packaged products saves you money and helps save the planet…GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN. Included accessories, software, documentation, and manufacturer warranties on OEM products may vary from retail versions. Please review our detailed specifications and photo gallery for included accessories and see below for warranty information.

Works Good Until It Doesn't
I had this drive for about 2 and a half years but then it spontaneously started to self-brick (corrupted it's own sectors). This is the only drive I have ever owned that has done this, and it happens to be the only SG drive I have owned (I usually stick with West D, Hitchi, or Samsng). I have drives that are 6 to 7 years old that still work. This drive worked perfectly right up until a few days ago when it went to hell in exactly 12 hours. 2PM to 2AM, in between those points it was destroying itself. Probably will not buy another SG product.

Good deal for questionable hardrives
Just past the return window I began to get HD failure warnings for 1 of the 2 drives I purchased. I'm not surprised because of other similar reviews... I guess you get what you pay for in this case.
